Influence of model uncertainty and long term deformations in action effects calculation in reinforced concrete structures

Xhemsi Malja

Most codes of practice adopt a semi probabilistic design approach for the dimensioning and assessment of structures. Accordingly, structural safety is ensured by performing limit state verifications using design values determined with adequately calibrated ...

C-shells: Deployable Gridshells with Curved Beams

Mark Pauly, Seiichi Eduardo Suzuki Erazo, Quentin Christian Becker, Yingying Ren, Francis Julian Panetta, Davide Pellis

We introduce a computational pipeline for simulating and designing C-shells, a new class of planar-to-spatial deployable linkage structures. A C-shell is composed of curved flexible beams connected at rotational joints that can be assembled in a stress-fre ...

The new Chapter 9 of Eurocode 8 Part 3 for Seismic Assessment of Existing Steel Structures

Dimitrios Lignos

The seismic assessment of existing steel structures necessitates the development of practice- oriented engineering models for use in nonlinear static and dynamic analysis procedures. These models should encompass the full range of the anticipated nonlinear ...

Conceptual design of 1000 m scale steel-UHPFRC composite truss arch bridge

Jieping Zhu, Ping Zhu, Xiujiang Shen

Excessive self-weight and difficulty in construction are the main issues confronted by super-long-span arch bridges. To address these issues, a conceptual design of steel-ultra-high performance fibre-reinforced concrete (UHPFRC) composite truss arch bridge ...

Synthesis of Kit-of-parts Structures for Reuse

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Gennaro Senatore, Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting, Alex-Manuel Muresan, Ioannis Mirtsopoulos

This paper shows a computational workflow to design a kit of parts consisting of linear bars and spherical joints that can be employed to assemble, take apart, and rebuild diverse reticular structures, e.g. gridshells and space frames. Being able to reuse ...

Decision Framework to Balance Environmental, Technical, Logistical, and Economic Criteria When Designing Structures With Reused Components

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Numa Joy Bertola, Célia Marine Küpfer, Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting

The reuse of structural components in new buildings has great potential to reduce the environmental impacts of the construction sector but remains uncommon practice. An obstacle to its wider implementation is the lack of robust assessment methods and decis ...
